Nadinath Nillegoda: ARMI’s Newest Group Leader is tapping into the Brain
ARMI is pleased to welcome its newest Group Leader, Dr Nadinath Nillegoda. Coming all the way from Sri Lanka with career pit-stops in the United States and Germany, Nadinath is now exploring the nexus between neurodegeneration and immunology, which provides him a niche in a quickly expanding research field. Neurodegenerative diseases, collectively, are the leading […]
Regenerative Medicine: Today and Tomorrow
During this year’s AusBiotech conference, held in October in Brisbane, MTPConnect released the report, Regenerative Medicine: Opportunities for Australia, in collaboration with the AusBiotech Regenerative Medicine Advisory Group and other key stakeholders, including the Centre for Commercialisation of Regenerative Medicine (CCRM) Australia. The report, a culmination of surveys, interviews and workshops with more than 60 key members […]
Regenerate Newsletter – November 2018
The November 2018 of the ARMI newsletter, Regenerate, is now available to view in the ‘Resources’ section. Here are some of the highlights for ARMI in November: Jihane Homman-Ludiye: ‘Pursuing neurobiology was a ‘No-Brainer’’ Eva Gschaider-Reichhart: Shedding Light on Therapies for Diabetes Veronica Uribe Sokolov: Investigating Growth Control Alexandra Grubman: Focusing Brain Power on Alzheimer’s Disease […]
Veronica Uribe Sokolov: Investigating Growth Control
Upon the establishment of the Roselló-DÃez Group at ARMI in May, postdoctoral researcher Veronica Uribe Sokolov has come on board as one of its first recruits. Hailing all the way from Moscow, Russia, Veronica’s unique insight and previous experience in organ and heart research landed her a place at ARMI – and we’re very excited […]
Alexandra Grubman: Focusing Brain Power on Alzheimer’s Disease
Dr Alexandra Grubman, a NHMRC-ARC Dementia Postdoctoral Fellow at ARMI, knows all too well the complexity of the brain. Working alongside the rest of her dedicated colleagues within the Polo Group, Alex is determined to unravel the mysteries of Alzheimer’s disease – and it’s no easy challenge. The Polo Group, headed by Professor Jose Polo, focuses on […]
Eva Gschaider-Reichhart: Shedding Light on Therapies for Diabetes
When Associate Professor Harald Janovjak decided to relocate his laboratory from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (IST Austria) to ARMI, postdoctoral researcher Eva Gschaider-Reichhart was up for the challenge of swapping continents and joined him. With a speciality in optogenetics – the utilisation of light to control cells in living tissue – Eva brings with […]
Jihane Homman-Ludiye: ‘Pursuing Neurobiology Was a ‘No-Brainer’
Come December, Dr Jihane Homman-Ludiye will be celebrating her 10 year anniversary at ARMI. We can’t believe how fast the time has flown – nor how many contributions she’s made to the institute. As a postdoctoral researcher in the Bourne Group, Jihane dedicates her working life to expanding the frontier of neurobiology research, an area in […]

Strengthening bonds: ARMI attends the 2018 ABC Symposium in Chile
Last year, ARMI was the host of the ABC Symposium. Bringing together leading researchers from Australia, Brazil and Chile (ABC), the symposia is an ongoing commitment to strengthen ARMI’s international relationships and discuss cutting-edge regenerative medicine and developmental biology across the three countries. As the second of three symposiums, Chile featured talks in both Santiago […]
Tackling #GlobalChallenges with Muscular Dystrophy Australia
In collaboration with ARMI (Australian Regenerative Medicine Industry) and Monash University’s Global Challenges students, Muscular Dystrophy Australia (MDA) delivered its first live ‘Ask me Anything’ panel on Facebook – and it was an absolute hit. Critically, the event highlighted the importance of collaboration in developing more engaging and impactful science communication to the public. Hosted and run by MDA, […]
